Seeing that brothers and sisters sang the hymns of praising God and played with different instruments. The big smile on their faces reminds me the happy life in God's house. There are lyrics sing like this "Only with God there is love, only with love there is family. All who love God one family." My brothers and sisters all come from different countries. We are not from the same family. It is God's words' calling and election, which let us come to His home from all over the world. It also gives us opportunity to experience the purifying and judgement of God's words, which help us start to mature in life and transform disposition gradually. We are worshiping God together in a family full of love.
Though separated by countless seas and mountains,
we are one people, with no boundaries between us,
with different colored skin and speaking different tongues.
Question 2: IfEastern Lightningis the true way, then what is the basis of your confirmation? We believe in the Lord Jesus because He redeemed us, but what do you use to verify that Eastern Lightning is the true way?
“When you forsake the flesh, inevitably there will be a battle inside. Satan wants you to follow the notions of the flesh, to protect the interests of the flesh. However, God’s word still enlightens and illuminates you within, moves you from within and works from the inside. At this point, it is up to you whether you follow God, or Satan. Every time truth is practiced and every time people practice loving God, there is an enormous battle. When you practice the truth, deep inside there is a battle of life and death. Victory will only be determined after fierce fighting. How many tears of sadness have been shed” (“Every Time You Forsake the Flesh There Is a Battle of Life and Death” in Follow the Lamb and Sing New Songs). Every time I used to hear God’s words in this song, I would ponder the following: Is practicing the truth really that difficult? When people don’t understand the truth, they cannot practice it. Once they have understood it, wouldn’t acting according to God’s will be enough? Could it really be as serious as “deep inside there is a battle of life and death”? It wasn’t until later, through my actual experience, that I had a taste that practicing the truth truly is not easy. What God said is entirely in line with the truth; it is not even a little exaggerated.
